Good as Gold

All Music and Lyrics by Alex Dolan Balin

Verse 1:
I guess i think i'm crazy cause all the thoughts i have they fly too fast, too fucking fast to know just what i'm trying to say right now.
The miracle i'm living is so amazing that i'm breathing in the air of the people that i love and i adore.
I share so many things with all the people in the world that i can't help but to feel that i just don't do enough.
So I'm here today to say that I now dedicate my life to all my brothers and my sisters out there all around the world.

Pre-chorus 1:
I really think i'm crazy but i really want to do amazing things, see amazing sights, and fall in love with everything.
And while i'm everywhere i know i'll always think of home and how fortunate i am to know the people i have known.

Chorus:
And Oh-oo-oh
Yeah I'm just happy to know
Oo-oh
That i've been high, i've been low
Oo-oh
And all is Good as Gold

Verse 2:
All i want to do is live in every moment with intentions of only doing what makes me happy all the time.
And when i'm sad and lonely all i have to do is call you and i know that what i'm doing is important and it's good.
You make me feel alive and for the first time in my life i want to go somewhere and do something i've never done before.
Everything i've done, well i have taken it for granted and now i realize just how amazing my whole life has been.

Pre-chorus 2:
And every smile and every frown and every road, up hill or down, has been the greatest thing and i'm so happy to be alive.
I really think it's funny that i used to be so sad, but now i've learned to see the world without the tears stuck in my eyes.

Chorus:
And Oh-oo-oh
Yeah I'm just happy to know
Oo-oh
That i've been high, i've been low
Oo-oh
And all is Good as Gold

Bridge:
As long as you are happy with whatever you are doing, feel happy all around and up and down and still within.
Cause when you see a smile you really shouldn't think about how white their teeth are, just smile and you'll feel happy too.
So if you look around and try to see all of the beauty you'll soon realize that all the ugly turned out to be pretty too.
I guess i think i'm crazy cause all the thoughts i have they fly too fast, too fucking fast!

(either chorus or solo)

Verse 3:
And the Whole world is so pretty, i mean everywhere you turn there is some miracle, some amazing sight you've never seen before.
And i wish i had a camera but then i remember what john said, that he wants to see the world this time with both of his eyes.
So like a sponge i soak up all the beauty in the world so i bring it to the people who really need it most.
And maybe you'll come with me as i go explore the world so you can also see the true miracle of life.

Pre-chorus 3:
Then you'll think you're crazy but you'll do amazing things and you'll see amazing sights and fall in love with everything.
And what's the point with feeling all this negativity about your body and your money, you know those aren't important things.


Chorus:
And Oh-oo-oh
Yeah I'm just happy to know
Oo-oh
That i've been high, i've been low
Oo-oh
And all is Good as Gold

(repeat chorus)
